Then perhaps one of your neighbours moved. If your ssid was hidden when google did their mapping then google may be relying on another ssid to locate you. So someone who lived a few km away moves next door to you, they turn on their router, you pick the signal, and now google thinks you are at their old address.

This happens to me when I visit my parents. I set them up with my old router. Now when I visit them Google tells me I'm in my apartment rather than in my parents house.

Maybe.

As for a resolution, you could try turning off 'Googles location service' under location services in settings.

Oh my god, that worked for me, THANKYOU!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] THE_KINGDOM:
this didn't work for me and I'm also experiencing this problem on wifi.

All this did is turn off the ability of location to use wifi to determine location, which means unless you have satellite reception, your not going to get location reporting at all
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
I think it is possible to report this to google so they remove the wrong ssid location from their location service.

I saw an amazing product on AMZER.CO.IN Its an emergency/backup charger not only for P500 but also any handheld portable device. Most distinguishing feature of it is it can charge on A/C as well as on solar energy. Now you don't have to worry about the battery of your O1 because this device called Amzer® 3500 mAh Battery Backup Solar Charger will take care of it.

ITS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I THINK EVERY SMARTPOHNE USER MUST BUY THIS.

SRY TO POST IT WITHOUT A VIDEO OR LINK, BEING A NEW NOOB ON XDA, CURRENTLY I AM BARRED TO DO SO.

I got one like this, tooks me one day to charge a small low consumption cell phone in Spain with a huge direct sunlight ... also, the battery is dying quickly (heat is not good for batteries, and using a mirror to avoid direct sunlight is not good also because the solars panels are getting f* hot ...).

Never used it on my P500, was too afraid to break the battery.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] wagon_burner:
downloaded all the stuff from the thread. everything went smoothly. i watched the video step by step. after uploading the usbdrivers to my NT it said

"Android ADB interface" instead of "android composite ADB interface"

it shows up in my device manager as a nook tablet still.

i derped. so i thought it would be ok anyways and then tried to zerg rush the baster-ahem NT only to see that the Zerg didn't even find my device.

i promptly decided to just wipe everything from my nook and start fresh but also every single thing i tried has failed to get rid of that blasted "android ADB device" from the one click unroot thing to doing a 8 step reset thingy and just plainly reset and wipe data from the stock settings, and now many hours later i have had enough and decided to swallow my pride and flaunt the noob card. i need help. i must find a way to wipe everything or maybe i can take a step from here. i dunno. derpy derp.

windows 7 ultimate 64bit

nook tablet 8 gb sd card.

(^^this is how people write these things right?)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
hm... well not sure if this is hidden anywhere in your description but did you try reinstalling the nook tablet drivers? since you have android adb device right now, uninstall that and if windows prompts you to restart you should do that. When you uninstall the adb drivers if there is a checkbox saying delete driver software for this device make sure to check that as well. basically what i am trying to say is you want to start fresh as in there should not be any reference to android or nook on your windows pc

another program that may be helpful is using usbdreview which is a program that monitors all devices with usb drivers. this may help is attempting to delete any reference to android and nook on your windows pc. hope this helps!

EDIT: just to add this tidbit in, if your having troubles with ADB, chances are it has nothing to do with your NT but rather with the drivers that Windows has installed already. There's a guide to installing ADB correctly, here's a link:

same problem i had previously.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
hm.. well if it keeps on auto installing generic drivers you will need to disable auto installation of drivers by windows. try looking through each of these links and see if it solves your problem. fyi you should uninstall all drivers relating to android and nook before proceeding

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rallyharry:
I´m using AOSP+ Rom with Speedy-3 Kernel. It´s the same that Android OS alwaly stands on top of the "usage-List" but battery life is normally about 1,5 - 2 days with normal use.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedalus:
Yeah, I've started to realise it's a problem with the graph, not the actual usage. Battery lasts just as long as on ginger bread.

Sent from my SNES
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endlight:
Oh really? I'm getting slightly less battery now than I ever have on any ohter custom ROM, and I don't think it's because ICS is less efficient.

I don't think my phone is sleeping properly, as I'm losing about 3% an hour with my phone off, nothing going on except for the usual google syncs, which i've always had on on any rom.

Total I'm getting about 12-13 hours, and it's not my display topping off usage, but android OS. My keep awake times seem pretty ridiculous given that they're always greater than the culmunative time spent out of deepsleep (according to cpu spy)

which kernel are you guys using?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technogravy:
I doubt it, the battery life is a good 5-7 hours less than GB with the same usage. the android OS is definitely preventing it from sleeping properly. GB would barely loose 5-7% during an idle of about 7-8 hours, now i loose close to 20%+
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgodfrey11:
I've been using oICS v43 and Steve's Awesome Sauce kernel (aosp linked it from here: http://xdaforums.com/show...64221&page=503). I was able to get 17hrs of battery with medium-heavy use (Netflix, Droid TV Prime Time, Browsing, File Downloading, Texting, Couple Calls, and Wifi Always On). If I let it run without using it, I'm looking at 60+ hrs of battery life.

I'm trying Matrix v14 right now. Will let you know results.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4391994:
Tested it with cpu spy, cleared all timers and left my phone 10 hours over night. On settings the os was on top but cpu spy said my phone was in deep idle 9.5h of 10. I got updates for weather every hour and a bad wireless signal so that COULD take 30 min of awake considering it also have to get my location.

Im soooo trusting cpu spy over the standard battery history so I also belive it could be a log problem instead of a real awake bug.

I got aosp+2.2 and speedy3
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haturaya:
I do agree with you. Similar behaviour with my NS. That Android OS consumption even higher than my Screen, yet I still manage to clocked 24-30h with my moderate usage.

* I use full ROM instead of Update one.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calisoldier83:
I'm not sure if people are not using their phones, but I'm already at half battery life and I just unplugged less than 5 hours ago. I'm on eugene's kernel and tried Matrix's as well, both haven't help along with the oICSv43. I've been closing out my programs after I opened them too. I just bought the phone/battery off ebay, the battery is a samsung and it was in a sealed plastic bag, so it should be brand new, but I could be wrong.

I'm almost ready to go back to stock.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4391994:
You dont have to be a genious to seal a plastic bag. If the seller was ebay trusted then it should be good and you should look somewhere else. For me for ex, low brightness using loggraph improves battery more than any kernel.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calisoldier83:
I'll try that as well. Should I try a different rom before I go back to stock?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4391994:

With My Xoom, when I had honeycomb installed with Airplane Mode enabled I could easily leave the Xoom on my counter for a couple of weeks and I would still have a 20-30% of battery power.

Since I installed the EOS Nightly ICS build the tablet eats up 30% of battery power after only 4 hours even on Airplane mode.

Something is definitely amiss here.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedalus:
Sorry, got to disagree with you there. With wifi never asleep, overnight my phone drained 5% in 10 hours. This is about double what i got with gingerbread. I never use deep idle, which is more for people who use their phones with the screen off, e.g. listening to music, downloading torrents.

Hello guys, i will post the step-by-step of what i did. I rooted my 2.3.6 VIVO (Brazillian carrier) using Super One Click. Then i installed ROM Toolbox PRO and started changing my notification bar icons, started with 3g, and every change he prompted me to reboot, but i ignored one time and tryed to make more than 1 change per 'boot trip' and then it gave me some exception errors and force close messages in spanish or french, now i dont remember. Then the phone entered in a bootloop and cant get out of the M logo. I then did factory reset and cleared the cache using fastboot menu and managed to connect on RSD lite, but tryed nothing besides connecting to the RSD...

Now the fastboot or the 'starting RSD protocol' screen dont appear anymore:eek:, i have pressed the volume buttons in all manners that one can press and it only shows the red M logo and stays on it forever... I probably bricked it, but how? Knowing that i did only the above?

Does anyone know a tool or another way to try to flash it back or anything else that can get my phone back to action?

What is really bugging me out is that i cannot access fastboot menu or RSD anymore! HOW?!?

Thanks for anything guys!

So the question is this too

What is adb ?

Please i need help here
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jay Evans:
Well you've just learned rule #1 the hard way. Always do a nandroid backup from CMW.

You could restore back to stock using ODIN. All the files you need are in the How To Root thread.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Cromius:
Odin restore will return your device (ROM AND RECOVERY) back to stock. Just boot your tab into download mode then connect to your computer with odin running and you will see a yellow box showing your device is connected. If it doesn't detect it, you need to get the correct drivers.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xpakage:
And then from the stock ROM listed in the provided link, you will then flash the CWM/Recovery to be able to flash a ROM you want to run/flash.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] norpan111:
FLASH STOCK ROM FROM ODIN ALSO FLASH FLASH FLASH ODIN ODIN. You should manage the rest
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xpakage:
Try going into download and Odin flash the stock ROM again.

If the stock ROM flashed correctly, after up to a 10 minute wait, it should boot into the stock ROM. Then you will go into download again, Odin flash either the recovery from that link or the newer recovery from the below link. You should be able to place the Rom of choice on the SD and flash through recovery.
